(CNN) -- The Justice Department secretly collected two months of telephone records for reporters and editors at The Associated Press, the news service disclosed Monday in an outraged letter to Attorney General Eric Holder.

The records included calls from several AP bureaus and the personal phone lines of several staffers, AP President Gary Pruitt wrote. Pruitt called the subpoenas a "massive and unprecedented intrusion" into its reporting.

Their response:

"Because we value the freedom of the press, we are always careful and deliberative in seeking to strike the right balance between the public interest in the free flow of information and the public interest in the fair and effective administration of our criminal laws."

You cant make this stuff up. Can you imagine the unholy uproar that would have gone on if a non-Obama regime had done this?

[Dugout Dad]

The media is under attack by the regime, and they are still reporting these latest developments passively. They are either in shock, suffering from Stockholm syndrome or they are actually in bed with the devil.

Folks, it's only Monday

Dugout D!!! So much going on and your chime in has been missing. So is the 'O' in trouble or is the media in trouble. At this point I can't figure out who is the bigger dope. Crap I am stuck for words.

Here's more food for thought on our wonderful(sic) admisistration
10) Only in America...could politicians talk about the greed of the rich at a $35,000.00 a plate campaign fund-raising event.
9) Only in America...could people claim that the government still
discriminates against black Americans when they have a black President, a
black Attorney General, and roughly 18% of the federal workforce is black
while only 12% of the population is black.
8) Only in America...could they have had the two people most
responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner (the head of the Treasury Department) and Charles Rangel (who once ran the Ways and Means Committee), BOTH turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.
7) Only in America...can they have terrorists kill people in the name of
Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims might be
harmed by the backlash.
6) Only in America...would they make people who want to legally become
American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay tens of
thousands of dollars for the privilege, while they discuss letting
anyone who sneaks into the country illegally just 'magically' become American
citizens.
5) Only in America...could the people who believe in balancing the
budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as "extremists."
4) Only in America...could you need to present a driver's license to
cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.
3) Only in America...could people demand the government investigate
whether oil companies are gouging the public because the price of gas went up when the return on equity invested in a major U.S. oil company ( Marathon Oil) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes (Nike).
2) Only in America...could the government collect more tax dollars from
the people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a Trillion dollars
more than it has per year - for total spending of $7-Million PER MINUTE,
and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money.
1) Only in America...could the rich people - who pay 86% of all income
taxes - be accused of not paying their "fair share" by people who don't pay any income taxes at all.

All 10 points are absolutely true and one could add several more - so sad.
Allow me to correct something though, use "Only in Obama's America"
